“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. Luke 15:11-20b
One of the famous parables in the Bible, they called it "The Prodigal Son". But I would like to call it "The Heart of a loving Father".
Despite of the disobedient of the son. He was still willing to accept him back without questions or conditions. He showed compassion to him and embraced him with his loving arms. That's the heart of a loving father.
That's also our Father in Heaven. He is always compassionate and full of mercy. If we humble and draw near to Him, He will draw near to us and embrace us and more importantly He will forgive and cleanse our sins.
Romans 5:8 says "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. That's how He loved us through His only Son Jesus died on the cross for us. Isaiah 53:10 even says "Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin,. See how Heavenly Father loved us by allowing His son suffered for our sins.
It's God who initiates for us to be back to His Kingdom and have an eternal life. It's all because of His unconditional love.
